Abstract
Objective: High sodium diet has been known to elevate blood pressure (BP). Several studies reported influence of dietary salt on nocturnal dipping in hypertensive subjects with sodium sensitivity (SS). We evaluated the effect of dietary sodium on daytime, nighttime and morning blood pressure. Methods: One hundred and one subjects (46±17years, 51 men) with (58±10years, 18 men) or without hypertension (41±16years, 33 men) were given low sodium-DASH diet (LSD, 100mmol NaCl) for 7days and high sodium-DASH diet (HSD, 300mmol NaCl) for the following 7days.
